They can try and they might win. Breaking money and state won't happen without risks. One way is the Troyan Horse. They can't corrupt Bitcoin
We are sending a Troyan Horse. Embrace Bitcoin it will give you the votes you need. Once inside nothing will stop it.
There is an exception IMO.
In a perfect libertarian country when a foreign state heavily subsidies an industry so they can sell their products at a loss in your country, that can be seeing as an attack, and tariffs must be set in place specifically to that product only.
Can be happening in the EV sector, China subsidizing really hard directly to the manufacturers, but the US is also doing it indirectly with the subsidies to the consumer.
That's because you are not selling enough. If you don't pay cap gain on $1M sell it will be hard to build a citadel. Even in a foreign country. Possible but preeety hard
Edible or not, please don't pull the whole thing. Use a knife to cut it.
And you are correct not poison not edible. Look for edulis or aerus
Microwave technology were not created to heat water and here we are. Just saying
You know this. Open protocols are to be use for who ever wants, even if we don't like them.
You are completely right on one side. On the other side a US endorsement, might make millions of people around the world to start studying Bitcoin.
The real question is...Does he know he dropped out?
I think it's the complete opposite, here I found out people are more open to debate, where in Twitter insults fly all over if you disagree.
Different opinions it's what leads to the truth as usually it's in some middle ground. That means you also need to be open for your opinions to be wrong and capable to change your mind
But he finally took the right choice. Its important to be able to change your mind as you receive more information
It's definitely not easy, and frustrating to try. At least for Bitcoin, every cycle brings a new wave of people that come for the money and stay for tech and revolution.
For Nostr, it will happen when governments start to put even more pressure on private platforms to share their data.
Anyway, it's just a matter of time, we can only show them the door, they are the ones who need to open it.
Now that you bring it to scale. I was continuing giving it a thought and reach to the following conclusion:
The US has this armament industry (not counting government) that in one side provides the citizens with arms to go to the shooting range to say Fuck Yeah, and support their industry, while in the other side provides arms all around the world to undeveloped countries to kill each others in perpetual civil wars. (Basically a very nasty industry)
It's true that an armed population keeps the government in balance, and also keeps away a possible insurrection of military forces. That's a great point.
It's not easy, I hope Bitcoin fixes this.
That's a good point. What I'm finding out is only on Nostr you can find people open to debate.
That's correct. I'm exploring it now, and it's interesting.
How I really see it, is guns give people an unreal sense of superiority or strength and creates a nasty industry across the globe. There are very few people that really used their guns to protect their families, it's a good excuse to spend money and go have fun.
Sorry to get in this thread. I do agree if government are allowed to have them the people too.
People with interiority complexes with the power of a batch are going to use that power to feel superior against others, not to defend them selfs.
Didn't see the point of state. That's obvious giving a gun and a batch to any idiot with inferiority complex who passes an exam it's the most dangerous thing you can do.
I stated a fact, you can interpret it as you want. How do you know what other people understand or not based on facts?
To reach a real understanding it's important to analyze all data, not only the data that agrees with your narrative.
